Ingredients

FOR THE PANNA COTTA

Gelatine leaves - 3tsp

Double cream - ½ kg

Whole milk - 2big cups

White caster sugar - 1big cup

Vanilla pod - 1

For the strawberries

Strawberry - ½ kg

Hulled and halved, or quartered if very large

Cornflour - 1½ tsp

White caster sugar - 1 cup

How to Prepare

For the panna cotta, put the gelatine leaves in a small bowl of cold water to soften - this will take about 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, pour the cream, milk and sugar into a pan.

Split the vanilla pod, scrape out the seeds.

Add, along with the pod, to the cream mixture.

Heat gently until hot, but not bubbling.

Remove the gelatine leaves from the water.

Squeeze out any excess liquid then add, one at a time, to the hot cream.

Stir until dissolved. Leave to stand for 20-30 minutes

until cooled - the vanilla pods should be suspended in the liquid by this point.

Strain the mixture through a sieve into 6 serving glasses, then chill for at least 3 hours.

Toss the strawberries with the corn flour and sugar in a saucepan.

Place over a medium heat and cook for 4-5 minutes, until the released juices thicken and the strawberries soften.

Set aside to cool.

Once completely cooled, top the set panna cottas with the strawberry mixture. Chill until ready to serve.

Instructions

You can use the strawberry jelly instead of preparing the mixture with corn flour
Make sure the panna cotta cream mixture is completely cooled before adding the strawberry mixture
If not, it will melt, ruining the texture of the dessert.
